After graduation, Chris started his own successful dairy farm business in 1987, growing from 25 cows to 75 cows, before selling the business in 1992. Soon thereafter, Chris joined Cobleskill Stone Products and he fell in love with the hard work of the laborer position. He was quickly promoted to foreman, then again promoted to supervise the maintenance shops and trucking division. He earned the title of Superintendent of the quarry, overseeing the entire operation until becoming promoted to General Manager. He was then responsible for company-wide health and safety compliance, environmental compliance, government affairs, education, and community outreach.

It would revisit overtime mandates that are hurting family farms. It would stop making New York less competitive and less affordable for the very people who feed our communities.

Assemblyman Chris Tague participated in a bipartisan roundtable discussion focused on the rising challenges of crime, its impact on families and quality of life in Upstate New York and practical solutions to strengthen public safety. Tague said: “We had a number of insightful conversations today that highlighted the real-world impacts of rising crime on our upstate communities. I want to extend my appreciation to all the local law enforcement professionals who took the time to organize this event and share their on-the-ground perspectives. These discussions are exactly what allow us, as elected officials, to bring solutions and stronger policies back to Albany. I am proud of my record to date and will continue supporting our law enforcement and find ways to improve public safety across New York State.”
